Long Committees Poems

My Last Las Vegas C.E.S. (1)
(A Memorial Poem)
I long counted Steve Bristow a friend (1) and we'd fly off to lunch

The man who sacrificed EVERYthing so
His family could...

The empathy princess is down. Completely depleted of all energies, through ridiculously and blatantly giving too much of herself to others again.

the soon to be extinct Jews.

Yes, they were a nation of Aryan...

These are post-revolutionary gay '20s,
without pre-revolutionary SpeakEasies,
replaced with ListenHard
to global climates of LeftBrain dominant despair.

Margaret Meade encourages
invites
urges small winds
assembled in privatized circles,
yet still dreaming of love's great evolving liberty,
winning healthy democracy
to win wealthy economies
to win...

I was talking to my solitary self again, grumbling how life held no adventure,
And my parrot, Cherry, often echoed me, as moon echoes golden splendors.

She'd ruffle her feathers and preen, as she perched redly upon...

Kindness and Lament

Money never to be found or spare
Funny how people just sit there and stare
Honey now you know this really isn’t fair 
Sunny for those who genuinely care 
Affection for those who are broken...

Ridding small businesses

Update, obfuscate code test test test trust penetration the Oligarchy programming all the rest

These are the times you wish
you could pack it all up and be a kid again:
Take me away from the Now
and into the Then

Back when it was all so crystal...

Life so complicated, so vindicated
Life never so simple in the dimple
Smiling, pining, piling up pressure in indicated
Moments and torments in a pesky pimple

Germinating on a face hitherto serene
Driven bonkers when complication that conquers
Spaces and territories...

POLLY WANT A CRACKER??

…and so they play
political musical chairs
uncostumed clowns
scampering about
like children,
pushing and shoving
accusing all
of acting like them.
Passing electronic notes
for all to see
while accusing others
of “leaking” information.
Feigning indignation
at the behavior
of their adversaries,
grandstanding before
a shepherdless congress,

To uproariously celebrate and put on a...

Chocolate snacks within my pocket
To fly me to the moon

Hopefully things will go up from here. 
The new world leader is Angela Merkel from Germany
She is well-educated and wise. 
She is not afraid to show people that she is a book reader.
